Sea Star – A festival in a Magical Lagoon
Sea Star festival promoted by the team behind globally acclaimed EXIT Festival takes place in a beautiful seaside town of Umag at the mind-blowing Croatian coast. It is set in the Stella Maris resort, in a turquoise-color lagoon with most amazing sunsets. Some of the most beautiful beaches in all of Istria are located in Umag, the sea is crystal clear and suitable for swimming from May until October. It was love at first sight for team Sea Star here, crystal clear Adriatic, sun rays all over us, and the beautiful bay just took our breath away.

Umag represents a breathtaking combo of baroque and renaissance, and Mediterranean climate, while this entire Istrian region is known of its delicious homemade and gourmet food, olive groves, fields of tomatoes and vineyards. Umag will open your senses, expand your views and the local cuisine will enchant you with its variety and balance, from fresh and delicious seafood to traditional meat serving you the most prestigious gourmet meal – Boškarin beef.

With Istria being the center of wine you just have to jump on one of Istria’s wine roads that lead to the very heart of their way of life. Take a walk around Umag town walls, with gated draw bridge, dating from 10th century, check out Church of St Roche from 16th century with oil-painted ceiling or exhibitions of ancient pottery and crafts, or just head over to the numerous city’s galleries to get your dose of culture. And just a few kilometers away, you’ll get to see the oldest lighthouse on the Adriatic, located in the nearby town of Savudrija that is also the largest and most important ancient harbor on the Croatian Adriatic coast.
